How to Display Category Descriptions in WordPress

Bess Negron

Is there a way to make the category description only show up on the first page of category archives? Isn’t it ‘duplicate content’ if it appears on every page of that category’s posts? Some of my categories contain a large amount of posts so there might be 4 or 5 pages of ‘older posts’ in that category. Each one of those pages of posts shows the same description. Thanks for any tips!
